What is going on everybody? Welcome back to the Mind of a Macrows podcast as always. I am your

host Mike Milner and man I am ready for some routine in my life.

And it has been a lack of routine for the past what

feels like several weeks, although it hasn't actually

been that bad.

Sometimes we love to catastrophize things. Just got back from a wonderful week long. I'm not going to call it a vacation because I still did some work, but it was a vacation. We'll just call it a vacation. We took the kids, Mel and I took the kids, plus more kids, to Ocean

City, New Jersey, that's right, there are beaches in New Jersey, you don't know they are nothing special

but the kids absolutely love it there so we've gone the past two years in a row

and they've been there before plenty of times but they love it they absolutely love it so we got a nice little

Airbnb that what were you, nine of us?

There were nine of us in the house together.

So Mel and I, and then seven kids.

So we had our three, my step kids who are 17, 15, and 11.

And then we had Mel's nephew and then

son's other friend and then one of,

and then we had my stepdaughter's boyfriend

and her friend was a lot. So seven kids between the ages of 11 and 18, most of

them teenagers, all of them teenagers except for the youngest. So we had our hands full but it was a

blast they had an amazing time and we were a couple blocks from the beach so we could

walk to the boardwalk and hang out on the beach.

And there were some activities and things that we did.

It took them jet skiing.
